Bridge to 'Bama (Hi-Tek remix feat. Talib Kweli) Lyrics

Soul!
Yo Step out on the block to face the sun
Greet the people in the village that raised my son
As far as days go this look like an amazing one
I feel more normal in the summer saying the Yankees won
It's like of course, what you expect less
Tonight about to kick off, folks is out in their best dress
Pimps and w****s rising on the horizon
Ballers coppin more diamonds
Rastafarians looking towards Zion
What's embedded in the hardest head
It's the epic lie to me indebted to a country that gives us no credit
So cats stealin money cash hoes
'Cause that's what's expected
If the bill when the original architect is comedic
Mummies return, so dummies can learn
Just how much Hollywood got to burn
Of our money that's hard earned
But that ain't really my concern
As I walk the block
When the sun goes down it starts to get hot
Chorus:
Bridge to 'Bama bring your wife, your brother, your kids, your mama
s**** bananas the way we paint pictures in a vivid manner

Magnetic like refrigerator poetry
Attract imitators who wanna flow like me
You notice me, floating free
Through the ghetto were the people supposedly
Ain't trying to show no love openly
Give me your hand
Trying to build a bridge so we can stay the course
Hi-Tek lay the track for the train of thought to run across
Come across places where faces got tracks of tears
Cause the human race been runnin up on they backs for years
Yeah, but they don't break
They keep it movin like when I travel the land
And peep how other people do it
How other people go through it
I'm bridging the gap like the Black Eyed Peas
I'm lovin givin it back, to see them raise up
I'm living for that
To keep trying means you keep failing
But if you don't keep trying
That means you keep dying
What the hell, we gonna die anyway
Keep it Soulive when you're here
Is what I'm trying to say
